Any idea how I ca re-coat it? I was thinking a red sharpie?

If you have a Dermal you can re surface it with a buffing wheel.

sharpies work well, I've done a few flashlights with them

I do but what about the translucent red? That's what got ef'd up. I'll try a sharpie and post results. Time to get the #^&#^&#^&#^& out and go through it all!

I think Dutch57 was saying he was gonna try using some red breaklight tape from autozone. Seemed like a good idea too.

I have beat the dog snot out of this headlamp for 5 years now.
Many rainy big surf nights.
I also use it almost daily slithering through the miserable unlit crawl spaces I tend to work in.
This light has never missed a beat, it's listed as submersible. Pivots 90°,
the red lens slides internally up or down,also it progresses through low, med then high.
Cool feature that helps the old eyes night vision.

Tried all kinds over 40 years and this is the best for about $30.
My UK didn't last a season, too tough on it I guess.

Yup that is my typical office.... should of married the rich.
